defenses The number of successful title defenses during the reign, if the promotion keeps track of them.
  • Set to "yes" to display a blank column when |type= is used.

  • If the new champion received the title through means other than a match.
  • Match types that were not standard singles matches.
  • Why the title was vacated or abandoned.
  • The date when the match was aired.
  • If the promotion recognizes the start or end date of the reign differently than what actually occurred.
ref If possible, a reliable source documenting the title change.
type There are multiple settings for non-typical reigns:
  • "vacated": If the championship became vacant.
  • "unrecognized": If the championship reign was retroactively unrecognized by the promotion.
  • "unified": If the championship was unified with another.
  • "deactivated": If the championship was abandoned or retired.
  • "promotion": To indicate the beginning of reign history under a specific promotion, if the championship has been promoted by multiple organizations. Used with |name=.
  • "unrecorded": If the championship history is unrecorded for a period of time. Used with |start= and |end=.
sort number For sorting the blank |number= column when |type= is used. Should be a number in the middle of the previous and next |number=, e.g. 3.5.
